After Stars War

Lucifer meets SoJu

Hey guys, great to have you here. You just came home from China, how was the trip?

Lucifer: Hm, just soso because our team lost...

SoJu: The weather is very hot, but a trip to China is always ok.

Looking back to the tournament, how do you like its system, the schedule and the participating players?

Lucifer: Stars War is pretty good but there are many problems around, like the sound and the player's table is very near.

SoJu: Yes, when I played vs suhO , I couldn't concentrate because I heard the Chinese shoutcaster's sound -.- Even when I did volume max.

And what about the players? Have they really been the best of their countries?

Lucifer: hm... I don't think so. But no detailed comment for that.

And are you both satisfied with the result of the tournament?

SoJu: I also wanted play final match but I couldn't, so... sad

Lucifer: Hm... ye, but maybe we should have won vs team dragon... fly did all kill so -_-; we were out.

Even in general China seems to become very interesting for Progamers, as there are good conditions for playing, except the internet connection. You think that China already replaced Korea as being the best country to live in as a Pro?

Lucifer: I don't think so, also NC but... FoV, Sweet, Showbu and Check live in China ~ but soso.

SoJu: Hm... before Korea was way better to live in but now I think it's China.

So, in China the scene is really fast expanding, while in Korea and Europe it seems to stay the same level. Where do you see the reasons for this development?

Lucifer: Hm... in China! e-sports is real sports -.- because China made it sports, and they support many games (not only SC as in Korea)

SoJu: Maybe because Sky won WCG 2times ?

Besides the Stars War you took part in the WC3L Finals and ESWC in Paris. Was it hard to handle for you, to have such a tight schedule to play three major tournaments? Or do you enjoy it?

Lucifer & SoJu: Jetlag and food problem is not good but tight schedule is ok.

SoJu, for you the recent weeks must have been the highlight of your career. Winning ESWC, WC3L and Stars War 4... Did you prepare in a special way for these tournaments and how do you feel now?

SoJu: I am always good at the qualifier and little bad at the finals because of the very high tension ,but this time I had no more high tension and so I thought I can win (before ESWC final)!!!!!! I did practice in a special way for (creo grubby lucifer lyn ), so thinking and inventing new strategies.

Do you feel confident now for the upcoming tournaments or do you try to improve even more now to show a good performance??

SoJu: I always lost vs NE but when I won creo I think it's not my weak match up, so I guess I can show you a good performance again without practicing a special matchup.

Well Luci, for you the recent weeks weren't as good as expected... are you dissappointed and what do you think you wanna change to get back your old strength?

Lucifer: I will practice more and also some problems are fixed and so I can just say time will show us!

The next big team tournament will be the NGL One Finals. Do you think it became uninteresting without World Elite taking part in?

Lucifer: Hm... ye but now our chances increased. In the past our efforts with MYM were... very disappointing for the fans and also orga and sponsor... and we don't want do it again so!!!! we will do our best at ngl.

Looking at your team's roster it is packed with well known and International high class players. If you could add another player to make it a "Perfect lineup", who would it be?

SoJu: No comment about that.

Lucifer: Our line up is the best!

SoJu, you just left World Elite. Tell us, what were the reasons for that? And what are your plans for the future? (This answer has been modified, as there was a missunderstanding according to the salaries in it before, please read the clarification (click here) of Zax)

I am playing for WE for 2 years and 3 month, and now I just show you the salary until now:
300-600-1000-600-700 (2005-2006)-800-900 (1-6/2007)-(NGL bonus 100$)-1300(7/2007)
The problem is when we are going to NGL finals the team don't want us to go there (because of the money) but we really want to go, so WE made a deal:
3th place (we need pay for 300$ to our team)
2th place (team take all of prize money)
1th place (player 20% team 80% take money)
Then I really want to leave this team -.- but I wanted to make some good result s before leaving the team and so we got NGL final champion.

SoJu and ReMinD

Wow, what a tough story. According to NGL, let's come to another major team league. Many people complained about the WC3L schedule. How did you feel with it?

Lucifer & SoJu: We want that they just annonce only WC3L -_-; because it's really hard waiting for your games if they put in others + WC3L in one schedule.

So, do you think this different conditions and the schedule could have leaded to a different outcome of the tournament?

Lucifer & SoJu: Yes, definitely.
